The White House looks like it'll take a back seat on the GOP's big tax-cut plan

President Donald Trump and his administration look to be taking a
step back from the crafting of the Republican plan to overhaul
the US tax code, allowing congressional leaders to work out the
details.

Gary Cohn, Trump's top economic adviser, told the Financial Times
in an
interview that members of congressional committees with
purview over the issue would be making many of the calls when it
comes to tax reform.

"In the next three or four weeks the tax bill will be written in
the Ways and Means Committee and Congress is going to own the
writing of legislation — that is key," Cohn told the FT.

Other reports have suggested Republican congressional leaders are
prepared to take the lead on the issue and craft the finer
details of a new tax plan.
